Prior to qualifying as a barrister and mediator I worked in the City of London as a trader in the money markets as well as previously setting up, grewing and selling three start-up businesses of my own. The combination of having been an employee, employer and entrepreneur and together with being a barrister makes me unique in being able not only to understand the legal issues involved in a workplace dispute, but also to get behind them to assist parties identify lasting, workable solutions for the future and reduce workplace conflict. This is particularly true in respect of board conflict, board mediation and executive mediation. It separates me from other workplace mediators.

An example of this is one mediation I conducted between a manager and a member of staff. The HR Director who appointed me told me that the held no hope for resolution but had to go through their processes. By the end of the day, the two members of staff in the dispute had settled their differences. I checked in a few months later and the agreement was still in place with no ongoing dispute.

I understand much better than most, the commercial imperative behind the swift and successful resolution of disputes that can cause disruption to a business. This business acumen, combined with in-depth legal expertise, provides unique benefits to clients when I am acting as an employee mediator or work mediator.
